My hopes are pinned on this game: Game 3707709

Maintaining 2100 seems impossible: Game 3707708
You are too close for it to be fair.

A single simple win is all you need.

Talk about being impossible to maintain, try Game 3583720 for an imminent fall as I am a whole Knight down.

Why I did not notice his Knight on b6 (twice) - first I give him a pawn then convert it too a whole piece - is beyond me.

But I have set 1 last trap. No comments obviously as this is in progress, but can you see it?

I think the knight on b6 classifies as the famous "invisible knight" position. 🙄

I'm trying to see the trap but to no avail. Is it a trap so that you win, or force a draw? Would you care to PM me the 'solution'?

About being a knight down: Game 3694699
That was quite the basic move combination. Luckily I turned the game around with a nice king-side attack.

Being 2100 is also a long term goal for me. I am 1600 OTB and training hard. I can only hope to be that strong before I am 20. 🙂

Good luck to everyone , especially Dragon Fire, who I know is really determined 🙂

Anyone care to oblige.
If I took skulls, I betcha I could top 1900, I've had so many opportunities. I'm just too soft 😉

Give me 2-3 years, I'll be there. I learned chess last July and am at 1700, so if I keep learning I'm sure I can make 2000 in a few years.

it is not about how fast you get it, it is all about how high you get it

Oh my goodness! That is as bad as mine.

I suppose against an 1100 I would have fought on a queen for 2 minor pieces down in my afore-mentioned game but against a 2000 what was the point of it.

Mind you, heres me getting revenge with Game 3765994 - a queen for a queen, thats what I say!
